Raving 4 Ricky 'London Edition'
The Leisure Centre and Retox Sound System bring you part 2 in the fundraisers for our family member Ricky Retox!
He was hit by a motorcycle while away fitness training and finding food sources in Thailand, sadly his insurance ran out the day before and was due to come home the day after. Medical bills have been in excess of £100,000 and he's still needing medical attention due to the 9 fractures on his skull and a bleed on the brain.
In true fashion, we bring you the finest selection of beats and bass, all genres covered from start to finish.
